If you know me, you know I love desserts. I spend countless hours designing up, baking, and decorating elaborate treats for dinner parties (I even have another blog devoted to those sweet somethings). So when it comes to the actual meal, I’m usually covered in flour, exhausted, and totally clueless as to what to serve guests before dessert. I have to remember not everyone views cupcakes at the top of the food pyramid.

Thankfully for me (and all of you!), ConAgra & Kroger (Give Every Night New Flavor) are sharing some of their favorite recipes that are perfect for serving to friends at parties! They asked me to try out a couple of their faves (see my review of Bean Enchilada Casserole), tough job huh? So last night I whipped up Creamy Chicken Pasta Skillet. My fiance literally had no idea who stole his future wifey and replaced her with a cooking machine. The house smelled ah-mazing.

So here are all the ingredients you need. Not too bad as I already stock several of these in my pantry (ahem, PAM.. I have 3 spray bottles at any given time. Obsession. Won’t ever have a cake stick again…)!

Totally DELISH! I just enjoyed leftovers for lunch today, as I write this actually!
